There's...

Take a look at these fraggers in Battlefield 3 taking aim from their...boats? That's right, apparently some bug in Battlefield 3 allows boats that have gotten flung in the air on the Sharqi Peninsula map to stay there for a while. The boat can even been controlled in the air. Just watch the video, it's funny.
Note: Video contains some NSFW...

A particularly nasty and senseless crime went down in Winter Haven, Florida earlier this week. Reportedly, thirty-two year-old Joshua Davis was smoking pot with some college kids (I guess things are like that down in Florida), and he then suddenly gunned down two of them and wounded a third, all while his young daughter watched.
Beyond his own...

A newly released DLC pack for Battlefield 3 has some gamers crying foul. "The Ultimate Shortcut Bundle" costs 3200 Microsoft Points, and unlocks almost everything in the game that you'd otherwise have to play to earn.
In American money, that's $40.00, about the price of the game itself, new, on Amazon.
It's interesting how game...

The maps in Battlefield 3's upcoming Close Quarters DLC pack won't support Rush mode, DICE leader designer Niklas Fegraeus reveals in a new Battlefield Blog post. He also confirms that the game's multiplayer Rush mode won't be supported by the smaller maps' tight confines.

As you can probably guess...

Brew up a pot of coffee, Battlefield 3 fans. This is going to take awhile. Looking at the 2011 game, and really the series as a whole, it's easy to see that DICE subscribes to the philosophy of "go big or go home." That thinking extends to the studio's approach to issuing patches as well, and the next one that's coming to BF3 sure is...
